Chapter 60: Unexpected Chaos Wind News
“Great location!”
It is not far from the main river and has convenient transportation.
One side is close to the hills, where you can mine some stones; the other side is primitive bushes with ample wood resources.
Once the divine domain is unfolded, it cannot be folded up within a year.
There are six mentors competing, and there is a complete alien civilization in the plane fragment with strong strength. It is better to be safe in the first year and wait for a year to let other apprentices challenge the Snake Kingdom.
By the way, I will take advantage of this year to learn the knowledge related to runes and magic pattern construction, and strive to complete the basic prerequisite courses within one year.
If you can complete most of the runes, you can build a magic tower by yourself.
Moreover, the expansion of the divine domain does not affect his movements. He can still travel to different places on the Black Hawk, but he can no longer open the divine domain and enter and exit at will like before.
But he has space in the palm of his hand, plenty of storage space.
After opening the door to the divine realm, Li Qing called in a group of laborers to cut down trees.
First, carve out a space large enough to accommodate the divine domain, and then...
Numerous troops were scattered around, leaving a wide space in the middle. Although there were many shallow tree stumps left on the ground after felling, they would not affect the expansion of the divine domain and would be automatically covered later.
At this time, Li Qing stood in the center of the open space, communicating with the divine realm with his mind.
The next second, countless white lights spurted out with him as the center and spread out rapidly.
Countless white lights gathered and quickly condensed into the outlines of the buildings in his divine domain. The people who remained in the divine domain and so on all slowly condensed into substance.
This is not condensation, but the divine domain entering the real material plane and covering the original plane space.
In other words, the divine domain space covers the current plane space.
At this moment, within a radius of 60 meters centered on Li Qing, everything revolves around him.
In this small area, he is the ruler and possesses all powers in the divine realm, including mobilizing the vast energy in the divine realm's energy pool to cast powerful war spells.
Well, that's provided he knows war spells.
Xie Zhu and others stood at the edge of the clearing and witnessed with their own eyes the transformation of the divine domain from nothingness to substance, as a huge castle appeared out of thin air in front of them.
I didn’t feel anything in the divine realm before, it’s just because it’s in this mountain.
Now outside the divine realm, one can clearly feel the oppression of the ten-meter-high stone wall.
You can only look up.
Li Qing waved his hand, and the city gate slowly opened:
"come in."
Everyone withdrew their heads from looking up and entered the divine realm .
“It’s magnificent!”
An Erqiu smiled and said:
"I didn't feel anything when I was inside the divine domain before. Just now, I saw it from the outside, which was nothing but magnificent and terrifying. I can't imagine how many troops and horses would be needed to capture such a castle, and how much would be lost."
Xie Zhu heard this and nodded:
"It is indeed extraordinary. Chu Zhongzhong's divine domain looks good, but it is far inferior to Lord Li Qing's."
A few people came to the tower of the divine realm while chatting. Li Qing was already waiting there. He waved his hand and signaled everyone to enter the tower.
After several heroes and professionals arrived and sat down in the hall, he began to speak:
"We will stay here for a long time. Ying Xin, Xia Mang, you two will be in charge of the basic work of the Divine Domain Castle. Li Rong, your main task is to organize civilians to cut down the surrounding trees, dig sand and stones, and try to clear a piece of open space in the surrounding area."
"An Erqiu, you and Long Shou will take turns leading a troop to scout the surroundings and eliminate any possible alien tribes."
"Xie Zhu, I won't make any arrangements for you three brothers. You can rest in the Divine Domain and continue to study, or you can go out with them to gain experience."
Once any arrangement was made, everyone followed suit.
Then Li Qing kept them chatting for a while to increase their affection and intimacy.
Most of the time, you need to maintain dignity and distance when dealing with your subordinates. However, apart from business matters, you also need to build closer relationships when appropriate, which is the so-called combination of kindness and authority.
Expanding the divine realm, Li Qing immediately communicated with his mentor and other apprentices in this plane through the connection between the divine realm and the Tree of Eternity.
Not only apprentices under the same mentor, but also apprentices under other mentors can be contacted as long as they are in this plane if they also expand the divine domain.
Li Qing immediately sensed through the divine domain that twenty-two war lord apprentices, including himself, had already deployed to the divine domain in the entire plane.
The closest one was Chu Zhongzhong, but in other directions not far away, three other apprentices had already put down their divine domains.
Feel the distance, it seems to be in the west, not very far away.
Nie Yang contacted the mentor immediately and discovered that he was not contacted through other divine realms. He asked:
"You have already unfolded the divine domain. Where is it?"
Li Qing sent the coordinates of his divine domain location. The instructor on the other side was obviously silent for a moment and said:
"Why did you choose to be here?"
Li Qing was prepared and told his mentor what he had observed before. He said:
"Now the apprentices of all the mentors have entered the plane and are looking for a suitable place to build a main base. However, most places rich in resources are occupied by the Serpent Man Kingdom. In order to compete for resources, they will definitely start a war with the Serpent Man Kingdom."
"If I choose another good place, I will definitely get involved in the dispute, and this battle will definitely not end within a year."
"I am not very strong, and I don't have much capital. I can't afford to suffer too much loss. I can only avoid the attack temporarily and strike back later."
…
Nie Yang remained silent. Li Qing felt that his mentor still did not understand his choice.
This is normal. As a war lord, he is also in the apprentice stage. He must be enterprising and acquire more resources in the early stage, so that he can gain the initiative in the increasingly fierce competition in the future.
Others avoided fighting and deployed their divine domain in the wilderness mostly because they had no choice or because they lacked strength. However, he clearly had enough strength but he avoided fighting. To be honest, Nie Yang was a little disappointed.
It's a pity too.
He is very optimistic about Li Qing, who has both potential and luck.
But he didn't say anything. The divine domain had already been deployed and could not be put away within a year. There was no point in saying anything now.
but……
He was not too disappointed, or to put it another way, because of some unexpected circumstances, Li Qing, who was not a good choice at first, is now a good choice.
After thinking for a while, Nie Yang said:
"There is one thing you need to be mentally prepared for. From the second half of this year to next year, a wind of chaos will blow through this plane. At that time, there may be a lord of natural disasters coming with the wind of chaos. At the same time, the other two five-star mentors and many other mentors will participate in this joint development. At that time, the situation in the plane will be complicated, so it would not be a bad idea for you to avoid it in advance."
"Lord of the Scourge?"
When he heard the name, Li Qing was shocked as if he had been stimulated, and said in surprise:
"This group of plane fragments is so close to the Eternal Divine Tree, how come the wind of chaos is blowing over here?"
The instructor spread his hands and said:
"I don't know about that. Anyway, Blackrock Tower has already detected it. That's a fact. However, with the protection of the Blackrock Throne, the academy will try to buy time for you. It will probably be a year later. And you don't have to worry about a large-scale invasion by the Scourge Lords. But by then, there will most likely be only a small number of Scourge Lords entering this plane. You just need to be careful."
"leave!"
Li Qing was speechless.
The so-called Scourge Lord, also known as the Void Lord, also called the Chaos Lord, is a monster lord who possesses a divine domain like humans.
The so-called destiny is not only possessed by humans. There are many races besides humans who also possess destiny and can condense the divine realm.
Or to put it another way, those who can obtain destiny are not limited to certain races, some monsters may also obtain destiny and thus have the ability to condense the divine realm.
This kind of monster lord does not have a fixed main plane. It is usually headed by a powerful Chaos Army Lord, who is a powerful existence similar to the throne of the evil god. He drives the wind of chaos to wander in the chaotic virtual sea, looking for various planes to invade and plunder.
Unlike humans, whose plunder is mostly sustainable and limited, the plunder of Chaos Lords is destructive.
They often like to plunder everything in the entire plane, whether it is living things or plants, some greedy people even do not let go of water.
They are like locusts, leaving no grass behind wherever they go.
Because of this, they have such an appropriate name, called the 'Lord of the Scourge'!
Fortunately, this group of plane fragments is not too far from the Eternal Tree and is protected by the Blackstone Throne. These Scourge Lords will not invade on a large scale, but will only send a small number of newly born Scourge Lords to invade.
"If that's the case, my choice was a mistake!"
"But it's not enough, the defense needs to be strengthened!"
Even if it is a newly born Scourge Lord, as long as he has completed an invasion without dying in battle, the accumulated resources and strength will be quite powerful. Some powerful ones may not be able to be resisted by the newly promoted official war lords.
Fortunately, Monster Lords are like War Lords. They may be able to plunder a lot of resources in their first invasion, but their high-end strength will not be too strong, so they still have to fight.
"We have to collect more supplies!"
Li Qing decided that everything should be done in advance to prepare for the natural disaster invasion one year later.
First, he spent a large sum of money to buy a blue-named civilian from his mentor, spending a full 100,000, and then used the extraordinary soldier fire warlock promotion card to transform him into a first-level fire warlock.
Then let Long Shou, An Erqiu and the three Xie brothers take the fire magician with them when they go out to gain experience and upgrade.
Li Qing planned to upgrade it first, and then consider how to further upgrade it when it reached the third level.
And then, nothing happened.
The resources at hand are limited, and we can’t accomplish anything in a short period of time.
In fact, the most crucial thing is that he does not have enough original light with magical effects. From the last time he condensed it to one year later, based on the fact that he can condense one or two points a day, he can condense at least four points in a year. If he is lucky, he can condense five or even six points.
This thing not only strengthens and awakens bloodline, it also has many other magical functions.
At that time, he planned to use the Hero Transformation Card to transform the Pyromancer into a hero, and then use a little Light of Origin to transform it into a five-star Pyromancer hero.
Then, you can use the accumulated dragon bloodline and hero transformation cards, add a little original light, and create a five-star dragon vein warlock.
But ideas are just ideas. After all, there is still a year left, and he won't be idle during this year. Maybe he will find time to do a few more things outside.
In the following days, Li Qing continued to stay in the high tower of the divine realm to study different runes.
A large number of civilians were cutting down trees near the divine domain, clearing out a large open space with the castle as the center.
The subordinates also continued to take turns going out for training.
In addition, as Li Qing also expanded his divine domain, heroes and professional apprentices began to come to his castle one after another.
However, after staying with him for a while, most of the apprentices who came earlier felt bored and left one after another.
There was nothing around him, only primitive jungle. Unlike Chu Zhong, where there was a large tribe of fishmen with whom he could fight, there was nothing he could do here.
Except logging.
However, his castle is a good place for some apprentices of the magic department who are not good at fighting and want to take the academic route.
The castle’s defenses are strong enough, so you can stay here safely and use the divine domain to take remote classes.
These academic apprentices seldom go out for training, and most of them stay in the castle to learn various professions. They are scholars and mages, and their combat capabilities are not very good, but they have rich professional knowledge.
Life is usually very hard in the early stages, but once the professional studies reach a certain level, they will immediately become the hot cakes that the apprentices of various war lords will fight over.
Just like the various teaching assistants under the mentor, he is one of the best among these scholar-type mages.
As time went by, more and more War Lord apprentices chose to expand the Divine Domain. Almost every few days, new signals were received indicating that someone had expanded the Divine Domain in a certain direction of the plane.
The War Lord's divine domain is like a signal tower. As it unfolds one by one, the entire plane gradually enters the information age.
It is worth mentioning that the signals between the divine domains of all War Lord apprentices can be connected, even if they belong to different mentors.
However, most of the time, the divine domain signals of apprentices under different mentors are separated and do not communicate with each other.
But it does not hinder the communication between ordinary apprentices under different mentors, because ordinary apprentices are neutral as long as they do not serve as apprentices of war lords.
Through the connections between these neutral apprentices, information was indirectly exchanged.
For example, Li Qing purchased a large number of maps circulated by other mentors through the three Xie brothers, and then pieced these maps together, and immediately figured out the detailed terrain of most planes.
Through the exploration and reconnaissance of a large number of apprentices, the situation of the entire plane has been roughly understood.
For example, the approximate scope of the Snake Kingdom.
In addition to the Serpent Man King's capital, there are also several cities of Serpent Man nobles, and a large Serpent Man fortress located among the mountains in the central area of the plane.
Through various means of distance reconnaissance, they discovered that the snakeman fortress was heavily defended, with four wizard towers inside, but the defense position was a large canyon between the mountains.
The depths of the canyon and the sides are surrounded by cliffs that are so steep that even birds cannot cross. The only exit is at the other end of the canyon, where the fortress is stationed.
They were all very curious about what was being defended inside, but the defense was too tight and no one could get through yet.
However, some people speculated that, judging from the terrain, there was most likely a passage leading underground at the end of the canyon, which means that there was an underground world in this plane.
